I apologize if this request has already been submitted. I was hoping a way could be added to have custom sorting from within collections. An example of this would be, I would like to sort my movies in my “Criterion Collection” collection by spine number without having to edit the sort order within in the default Movies library. Thanks ---

This has indeed already been proposed. Please use the forum search before posting duplicate requests to avoid distracting votes. > [@\[Implemented\] Custom Collection Sorting - Machete Order](https://forums.plex.tv/t/custom-collection-sorting-machete-order/236226): > > General question about collection sorting using the Star Wars ‘machete order’ as an example. At the minute, it’s only possible to sort collections alphabettically or by release date. Anyone know of a way of custom sorting a collection without affecting the main library sorting? This would be possible if more collection sorting options, i.e. fully customisable sorting, were added. ---
